Comparison dose distribution of conventional radiotherapy with the application of IMRT
FÁBERA, Michal
The bachelor thesis deals with examination of techniques used in radiotherapy, and comparison of dose distribution in PTV and critical organs for conventional radiotherapy and the intensity modulated radio therapy (IMRT).The main aim of the work was to summarize present therapeutic methods in radiotherapy and to compare dose distribution in conventional radiotherapy and application of the intensity modulated radio therapy.
Radiation therapy of non-melanoma-type skin tumors
MENCLOVÁ, Lucie
Skin tumors of non-melanoma type (particularly basal cell cancer and squamous cell cancer) include a large and important group of malignant lesions. Their incidence in human population has been steadily increasing. The current treatment modalities include surgical excision and radiation therapy. The advantages of radiation include the ease of application, pain-free administration and excellent cosmetic result. The goal of radiotherapy is a homogeneous dose distribution in the entire volume of target tissue. This distribution is affected by a choice of particular radiation criteria, which are individually selected for each patient undergoing radiation. The choice of a particular technique of radiation is affected by a number of factors such as microscopic findings, tumor localization, TNM classification, etc. Analysis of data collected in a group of patients treated by radiation at the Department of Radiation Therapy and Oncology FNKV during the period from 2001 to 2006 showed, that there has been a steady rise in incidence of these non-melanoma skin tumors. This confirms the importance of this topic.
